Sir You Don’t Know Your Wife - Season 3 Episode 39

Abby, whose face had just recovered from blushing, turned crimson again at Janet’s suggestion and glanced at Gordon. “T-There’s no need for that. My family will come and pick me up!” she said and ducked behind Janet.

Looking at her with a smirk, Janet decided to let it go. “Alright then. Let’s wait together.”

As Gordon stood under the streetlamp, the light shone on his aloof figure and he pursed his lips slightly. Soon, their classmates began to leave one after another until there was only Janet, Abby and a few of them left. It wasn’t long before Gordon’s driver drove the Rolls Royce over and waited at the curb.

Before getting into the car, Gordon peered over at Abby and she suddenly felt a rush of icy coldness from her toes all the way up to the top of her head and she shivered from it; an inexplicably odd feeling indeed. She held her breath and merely acknowledged his look with her eyes.

Giggling, Janet asked, “What? Are you avoiding him?” The next second, Abby’s whole face was burning again and she appeared both shy and troubled at the same time, which prompted Janet to say, “Forget it, I won’t ask you about it anymore!” Casually, she pointed at a car which had stopped in front of them. “Your car is here to pick you up!”

The middle-aged man in the car waved at Abby and she nodded. With her hands gripping the hem of her skirt tightly, Abby suddenly muttered, “Janet, I’ll get going then. Take care!”

“Don’t worry!” Janet assured and stopped a cab from the side of the road before pushing The Beasts into it.

In the cab, she whisked out her cell phone and began going through Twitter, only to find that Class F’s uploads had created quite a stir on the Internet as the preview of the music video was now a hot topic of discussion. The comments below the post were all compliments from fellow netizens.

‘My goodness, Sweet Tune Guru is just like a goddess!’

‘Such a pity that we can only see her back, but I’m still mesmerized by it!’

‘Oh, Gordon and Walter are working together again!’

‘Looks like the sales of this music video will hit a new record!’

‘How amazing it will be if there’s a live performance!’

Expressionless, Janet closed the application and shut her eyes for a moment. Suddenly, her phone vibrated and she glanced at it nonchalantly. Upon answering the call, Lee exclaimed over the line, “Oh my god, this is unbelievable! Just the preview alone was enough to drive netizens crazy!”

“Hmm. What are you trying to say?” Janet asked coolly.

Unable to hide his excitement, Lee said agitatedly, “The director and investors saw the potential in the music video and they want to organize a live performance; the pay is very high!”

“How much are they paying?” she enquired as she crossed her legs nonchalantly.

“Five hundred million!”

Stunned, she repeated, “Five hundred million?” This meant that the music video could sell for more than a billion. It was why the investors and director were willing to spend that much money to invite her to perform.

“Janet, will you accept the offer?” Lee asked eagerly. Not only would the commission be out of this world, he would also have the chance to see Janet shine on stage.

Pursing her lips, Janet said impassively, “Okay, but on one condition!”

“Anything!”

As Janet told him her condition on one end of the line, Lee nodded on the other end and finally said, “Not a problem. I’ll convey the message!”

The next day in the office of Lowry Family Conglomerate, Henry leaned back comfortably on a black leather couch with one ankle over his other knee as he watched the video on his cellphone sent over by the investment department.

Since last night, he had received countless requests from that department, asking him to invest in the music video for ‘Heaven on Earth’. They claimed that there was a possibility for it to be a big hit and they stood a chance of making a killing from this investment.

The preview of ‘Heaven on Earth’ began playing and he saw two men and a woman enacting a romance scene while another woman revealed her beautiful back. Seated in front of a piano, her long, graceful fingers danced across the keys with the ease of a stallion galloping across the prairie as she played. The beat was as light as a dragonfly skimming the surface of the water while the tune flowed fluently like currents in a stream.
